You Asked, We Listened: Top 9 FAQ About the Academy’s Strategic Planning Webinar

As we get closer to the Academy’s Strategic Planning webinar on July 16 at 2pm PT (5pm ET), I have received quite a few questions about what you can expect from this webinar. I’m here to answer all your questions!

I’m not an estate planning attorney. Will this webinar be of any benefit to me?

Great question! While the Academy systems are uniquely designed to transform estate planning law practices, the information we’re sharing on the Strategic Planning webinar is applicable to any law firm business owner. All are welcome and encouraged to attend the webinar! I guarantee you’ll find some bits of information that you can implement in your firm, regardless of practice area.

Give it to me straight — what’s the catch? I don’t have time for a sales pitch.

Well, that’s good. Because we’re not salespeople. And frankly, we don’t have time for it, either. On this webinar you will get the entire first system of the Academy’s 11 Systems — and that’s that. We’re giving you the materials and the training exactly as you would receive them at an Academy Boot Camp. No bait and switch. No sneaky plot twist. And hey, if you feel like I misled you and you’re not happy with the content of the webinar, guess what? You can always drop off the line if you’re just not interested in the information we’re sharing.

This sounds too good to be true. Why are you giving away an entire system for FREE?

I love this question! The truth is, when we take the time to share some of our most coveted practice management systems and strategies with our community of attorneys, the return is two-fold. First, we get to show off a little by giving you a sneak peek of some of the amazing content we provide to our Members every day. And second, we get to open the floor for conversations with attorneys who might be interested in Academy Membership or might feel like a change in practice area could be on the horizon for them.

Do you offer CLE for this webinar?

We will not be offering any CLE for attendance on this webinar since the majority of the content concerns the planning and vision for your law firm. We offer CLE at all of our Summit events, which we hold twice per year. If you are interested in learning whether you are qualified to attend our upcoming Summit in San Diego, CA October 14-18, 2015, shoot us an email at questions@aaepa.com and I can get you a full agenda so you can see what you’ve been missing!

What if there’s already an Academy Member in my area? Can I still attend the webinar?

Of course you can! While not all geographic territories are open for Membership, we are providing this training free of charge to all attorneys (we’ve even invited a few financial advisors who are interested in growing their business). As I mentioned before — even if you aren’t in the position to join the ranks of the Academy Membership, the information we’re sharing will be beneficial to all law firm owners.

Will you be providing materials for the webinar?

Will we ever! Not only will we provide materials and slides to help you get the most out of your time on the webinar, but we will also be providing the exact forms and instructions we give to Academy Members when they are creating their strategic plan. These forms have been developed and improved upon over 22+ years with our Members and our team of Academy experts.

How long is the webinar?

Would you believe me if I told you that we will pack all of this training and information into just 70 minutes of your day? Well, believe it! This webinar, hosted by the best of the best at the Academy; co-founders Robert Armstrong and Sanford M. Fisch, and Academy COO, Jennifer Price, will be just over one hour long. So book it, Danno — Register here!

I really want to attend the webinar, but I can’t make it on July 16 at 2pm PT. Is there another way for me to get all this great information?

Absolutely! We know your schedule doesn’t always allow for you to join us at the designated webinar time, so we’ll be recording the webinar and will make it available to you within 24 hours after the webinar. The only thing you have to do is register for the webinar to make sure we have your name on our list of people who want the recording! You can register here.
